If you are participating in Flat Adventures, this post is for you. Creating a Flat is an optional activity that can be lots of fun.
**What is a Flat?** A flat is our version of Flat Stanley. In 2010, when 13 women created pixels2Pages, many of us had never met. Some of us were going to meet for the first time at convention and we wanted to have everyone together. We decided to bring those who could not make it to the event in flat form. We even got the community involved. You create a flat image of yourself that can go on a variety of adventures with other members of the community. ![Flat Adventures 2010.png](https://forever-cms.s3.amazonaws.com/Flat_Adventures_2010_d487a1f292.png)
**How do you create a Flat?** Don't overthink it. Flats are meant to be fun caricatures. You can dress up your flat using photos and/or your digital art library. You can custom cut yourself out of a photo and use it as a flat or cut your head out of a photo and piece it together with a variety of shapes. All Flats should be saved in .PNG format without a background. This will make it much easier to go on a variety of Flat Adventures. We have a friendly community. If you have questions about Flats and Flat Adventures, be sure to post in [The Pixie 500 Facebook Group](https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepixie500).
**Recommended Kits:** There are plenty of kits that have elements you can use to create or support your Flat. You can even find some elements in the freebie kits being distributed to you, or content you already have in your library. The kits in the Featured Digital Art Section of this post were designed with Flat adventures in mind.
**Share your Flat Adventures** When you can, use your Flat's hashtag and post your adventures in the [The Pixie 500 Facebook Group](https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepixie500). We also encourage you to post your adventures in our [collaborative album](https://l.forever.com/YXnJDjJC) which is linked below.
